I would give this place 1000 stars!! We wanted to climb on our road trip, and this gym was a delightful treat! Great boulders, fun top rope, something for everyone. Gleaming locker rooms, and friendly friendly staff! I kind of want to travel more just to come back and say hi. One of our climbers had a breakthrough on the wall, learned some new stuff, and they genuinely cared and were enthusiastic. LOVE THIS GYM!!

I love it here. Such great value for the membership. Movement is a truly wonderful name for this place that helps me move my body and mind in so many ways. Yes, it gets crowded, but it makes me so happy to see so much community.

I'm new to climbing and just joined Movement last month, really for the bouldering in RINO, but have quickly found top rope climbing to be way more fun! The route setting is great, changes often, and I continually hear it's the best of all the big gyms in Denver. I 100% agree with other reviewers that the arena style seating makes it so much fun to watch others climb and the vibe is really friendly and inclusive. Plus, the staff is great - helpful with testing, questions, etc.

Visiting Denver and stopped in on a quiet weekday with kids to climb. Ropes have auto belay and carabiner, all we needed were our shoes and harnesses. Super friendly and safety conscious staff, fun bouldering cave, and lots of inclusive options for beginners and kids (and some inspiring advanced routes!) Vibe was chill would definitely come back next time we are in town!

Very nice facility. But I have to shoutout David Medina. His expertise and professionalism are next to none. He demonstrates a passion for the climbing community that is often lost and overlooked. I think critics of his demeanor are misinterpreted. Most accidents that occur in a climbing gym could easily be prevented if dangerous habits are addressed. No one likes being told that what they're doing is potentially risky and it is a difficult conversation to have. Climbing has grown exponentially in the last 20 years and with that comes change in techniques and equipment. We have to trust our climbing professionals to help us keep up the best standard possible so that we can continue to climb as risk-free as possible.
